Did you see the DNA testing results?Quote: IbeatyouracesQuote: FaceQuote: IbeatyouracesA vasectomy it's not quite 100% foolproof on preventing pregnancy. Neither is tubal litigation in women.
OBJECTION! XD
Overruled! ;-)
Friend of mine had a kid after a vasectomy without a reversal of it.
I had my procedure done about 8 years ago. I had a fair amount of pain for about a week or two; not kidney stone pain, but still, it was pain. After the procedure, I had minor pain for about a year, where the pain was transient, but happened a few times a day. Apparently, I am the exception.
My secret: When I was about 10, I came up with a great prank at the rec center, and my brother agreed to do it. He poo'ed on a piece of toilet paper, and we deposited it onto the hot rocks in the sauna. We could see the sauna door from the lobby, and we sat out there for a while. It was priceless (for a 10 and 11 year old) to see the grimaces when people walked into the rec center and watching people hold their noses as they left the sauna after staying only moments.

I don't just sit there an count bugs, but revel when a big one is a direct hit the bug gets stuck on the screen outside the light, and the electricity just keeps pouring in him. First you can the inside of the bug, like looking through at an x-ray. Then after several seconds he begins to fry and you can smell the smoke. It smells both sweet and putrid at the same time. I love it!

THAT WAS YOU!!! I HAVE NEVER FORGOTTEN!
(Hah, )
I would hope that people who got bombed with powdered donuts have forgiven (or at least forgotten) me by now. I with a friend hurled donuts high into the air over some trees, then run if we had to if someone tried to come after us. We may have bounced them off some cars too.

I think they now put those where bug parts won't fly (no pun intended) out onto your food. But I remember seeing them in proximity to a booth you might be sitting in old diner type restaurants.
I kind of enjoy them too, but not quite to this extent! : ) ZZzzzzzzttt!

Quote: Zcore13Not even ice. If you've lived a sheltered life and never participate in any activities maybe. I've you've ever played sports, or hike, or exercise or even do yard work, you've had more pain multiple times in your life and just kept doing what you're doing.

The guys used to show up for work post-vasectomy with an icy big gulp they held between their legs and go right on working radar the same day (a bunch of them got one about the same time). It became a "thing".
Way back when, we were in Pam Stiles' '66 Buick convertible, really high and drunk. Artie Giaconelli got out and started whooping it up, then climbed on the convertible top and laid flat on it. I started hitting him from inside the car, and put my fist through the top. Everyone thought Artie did it from above, though, and I never said anything. I figured screw it, he got on top of a convertible.

Bag of frozen peas, and as a bonus it didn't take a prescription or anything. I think we had one in the freezer.

Yes, I was expecting a thread involving more significant secrets such as "I'm a mass murderer" but I guess
if you are playing Blackjack in constant fear of being ejected from the casino, its not wise to give them further
ammunition to throw you out. Or if you do Sports Books, you only want your action refused for the dollars,
not the wisdom and certainly not for some blonde you buried out in the desert and then later unwisely posted about
on a sports forum. So as I said, its better to keep secrets secret.
Or as Charlie Chan once said to an inquisitive fellow: "Can you keep a secret"?
Upon receiving an affirmative reply, Charlie Chan responded: "Good. So can I".

I said I haven't had a bank account, never said I don't
have safety deposit boxes. I have a home safe but
never use it, I don't know why. It just doesn't feel 'safe'
I guess.
But you lawyers, do they teach you how to think that way
in law school, always go after the cash any way you can
get it? Sheesh..
Quote: BeardgoatMY wife hates when I go to Vegas. She doesn't really mind casinos in general, but Vegas reminds her of bad times when I was drunk and gambled away a large portion of money. I haven't been back since this time about 15 months ago. My secret is that I want to buy a flight to Vegas during a weekday when I should be working. I'd leave for work like normal at 5 am but instead drive to the airport, catch a 1 hour flight flight to Vegas. I'd gamble and have fun for 6-7 hours and then catch a flight home. She would never know but I'd feel really bad about doing it. Anyone ever done something like this?
Was just talking to a guy at the tables and he said his wife pushes him to go play blackjack because she knows it is his only "demon" and wants him to enjoy his life. My kind of woman!
He said they are happily married and have been together for 23 years - who am I to doubt...?

Yep, I've done this sort of thing - not including any airline travel and not to Vegas. But I have. Reveal a secret indeed!
#1] I rely prefer to be honest and above board in all things with her, but like most husbands spouses complete honesty in all things is impossible in marriage I think. The truth can be too powerful. Too big a pain in the ass.
But I digress.
#2] It's supposed to be a warning sign that a gambling problem exists. So even for my own sake, I hate to lie about it. Still, with a spouse not really a gambler herself, the temptation is always there and I am human.
#3] I skipped work once to fight a speeding ticket too, and without telling her; and the case was dismissed, too, ha! Again, I just didnt want this particular ticket discussed. Enough!

I concur wholeheartedly!
We should all want our spouses happiness.
I couldn't be married if I had to worry about who my wife wanted to be with neither could she.
I sometimes take off for a month or two, there is never a doubt and we miss each other like crazy. She doesn't want me to quit being me.
I think people's pain from finding out about their spouses infidelity is it makes them really look at themselves and ask why.
Other times its an easy way of making sure he is in one place and not skulking around the books somewhere else.

The first sign of addition is usually a big +.
I once asked a craps dealer how he could tell when someone had turned into an addict.
He replied: When the needle doesn't hurt anymore.
I guess the same would hold true as regards loss of bankroll.

Quote: aceofspadesThis thread rocks!
Here is another secret...I want a vasectomy a BUT, I have heard that the pain is extreme and there is a possible side-effect of your junk not working properly afterwards - so , as of yet, I have not gone through with it
I had a vesectomy 45 years ago and everything is still functional. I had no pain at all, had the procedure in the morning went home for a few hours and had no pain so went to work. Other than itchy stiches never had any discomfort. The tube can grow back together but it will happen within a few weeks if it is going to. You are supposed to use other birth control for several weeks and then have a sperm count done to be sure.
The worst part of the whole procedure was the crowd watching. They traipsed a group of interns in to watch plus the doctor was demonstrating the procedure to another doctor. After doing the first side he asked the 2nd doctor if he wanted to do the second tube. I didn't get a vote. The second doctor grabbed something and says "is this it?" first doctor says "yes that it is it" then just in time say "NO" and had to help him find the proper tube. Have no idea what he almost cut but it was rather disconcerting lying on the bed with about 10 people watching and everything rather exposed.
